Textile designing involves creating fabrics, printed fabrics, yarns, fibres, dyeing, embroidery and design development. At UID, we offer an M.Des Textile & Knitwear Design course. The course prepares students to innovate, create, and experiment with fabric.
The difference between knitted and woven is the way they are made. Knitting involves interlacing/interloping a single thread/yarn. Woven fabrics are produced using longitudinal yarns, warps, and latitudinal yarns. Students can get to learn these techniques during their M.Des Textile & Knitwear design course at UID.
